Femoropopliteal artery occlusive disease: Stenosis or occlusion of common femoral artery (CFA), superficial femoral artery (SFA), or popliteal artery
Chronic total occlusion (CTO): Complete arterial obstruction lasting > 3 months; no luminal patency
Typically densely organized with fibrous tissue
May calcify; lesions often difficult to cross and treat
